Expansion, Hilton open
with grand
celebrations
After a year of construction, the University Center
expansion opened in November with a grand opening
party with enough cake and balloons for hundreds.
President Dr. Philip G. Hoffman cut the ribbon for the
event. Door prizes and entertainment were furnished for all
in attendance. The expansion now houses a lounging area,
a check cashing counter, offices of student organizations,
and a novelty gift shop.
In celebration of the grand opening of the Conrad Hilton
School of Hotel Restaurant Management the first annual
gourmet night was held in the Shamrock Hilton. The dinner
which was planned, cooked and served by HRM students
was served in the Shamrock Hilton because facilities in the
campus continuing education building were still under
construction at the time of the event. The Conrad Hilton is
one of few hotels built on college campuses for the primary
purpose of training of HRM students.
